1....Dou Qi Continent

Dou Realms

In this land whoever has strength, has dignity.

Without strength you are nothing.

As you train your Dou Qi level you gain status and class, within each Dou Qi class there are levels indicated as stars, when you reach nine stars you have the potential to advance your class.

e.g. - a nine star Dou Zhe will advance to Dou Shi with his next Dou Qi increase/breakthrough. The gap between each stars will increase as one advances to higher classes and the difficulty of advancing would also increase.

Rank Dou Realm Details

1. Dou Zhi Qi :

( Dou Disciple) The very beginning of Dou Cultivation.

2. Dou Zhe:

(Dou Practitioner) Upon reaching this stage, a Dou Fighter can truly utilise the Dou Qi within their own bodies.

3. Dou Shi:

(Dou Master) Once this stage is attained, a Fighter can use the Dou Qi in their body to form a cloak giving increased defensive strength.

4. Da Dou Shi:

(Dou Grandmaster) It is at this point when a Practitioner's Dou Qi becomes hard enough to form an armament.

5. Dou Ling:

(Dou Spirit) It's considered a decent enough state to be in where a person's Dou Qi will solidify and it becomes possible to apply it to other objects.

6. Dou Wang:

(Dou King) At the time when a person reaches this stage, they will be able to form Dou Qi wings and even draw Dou Qi from around themselves. While this amount is not very large, it can still be useful in a fight.

7. Dou Huang:

( Dou Emperor) A step into the realm of the truly strong is attained once one reaches this stage. These existences can draw on massive amounts of Dou Qi from the area and briefly hold themselves in the air without wings.

8. Dou Zong:

(Dou Ancestor) A pinnacle existence among most minor clans, a Dou Zong gains the ability to utilise the mysterious 'Spatial Strength' to do things like hold oneself in air or even create locks in space, where a person can only escape after breaking the lock. However, this method exhausts a vast amount of Dou Qi.

9. Dou Zun:

( Dou Venerate) A strong person no matter where one goes, the Dou Zun gains an almost perfect knowledge of the so-called 'Spatial Strength', and is able to use it in a far more versatile manner than any Dou Zong ever could. This class is characterised by the ability to form wormholes (Gaps in spacetime).

10. Ban Sheng:

(Half-Saint)This is a transitional stage of the higher level cultivation realms. It is not considered a true Dou State , but is still necessary to enter the extremely strong Dou Sheng class. It is divided into the lower, intermediate, and high levels.

11. Dou Sheng:

(Dou Saint) A peak existence among even top tier powerhouses, the Dou Sheng is a realm so broken that logic starts to fail here. A one star Dou Sheng can easily overpower dozens of Ban Sheng, a two star can easily defeat a one star, and so on.

Upon attaining the sixth star, a Practitioner can open a separate realm for others to inhabit, and the seventh can utilise all the Dou Qi within those realms, effectively becoming the world.

A nine star Dou Sheng is representative of the peak of the world, with no other existence coming close to that. Any casual action of a Dou Sheng can demolish cities, shatter mountains, and destroy space itself.

12.Dou Di:

(Dou God) The Dou Di is a mythical ranking, high above all others.

Heavenly Sovereign Equivalent

13. Dou Tian:

Dou Heaven Ruler Equivalent

14. Dou Shen:

(Dou God) Great Ruler Equivalent

2....Dou Technique Skill Ranking :

Dou Qi skill ranking is separated into 4 classes.

The higher the level, the stronger the skill. Once you have reached Dou Practitioner, you are able to learn skills and abilities.

Reading scrolls is the most common way to gain a new skill; however, there are other ways to obtain abilities.

You can even develop new and unique abilities through rigorous training.

Though uncommon, these are abilities that have never been seen before and are unique to you.

1. Huang (Yellow):

This is the first rank skill class and within each skill there is a further subclass as low/mid/high.

2. Xuan (Black):

This is the second rank skill category.

A High Xuan and Di class may merely have a one level distance, but the gap was just like that of the Heavens and the Earth.

Most Xuan class Dou Techniques relied on the personal strength of the user to unleash its strength.

However, a Di class Dou Technique was already able to rely on the natural energy to achieve an extermination-like destructive strength.

One was a person and the other was the Heavens and Earth. There was basically no comparison between the two.

3.Di (Earth):

This is the third rank skill class.

Though Di Level was only one grade better than High Xuan Level, the distance between the two was as wide as the grand canyon.

With enough wealth and a bit of luck, one could occasionally obtain a High Xuan Dou Technique from a high-ranking auction.

Yet a Di Level Dou Technique could be said to be priced beyond the market as it was once heard that in the imperial capital of Jia Ma Empire, the price of a Di Level Dou Technique had rocketed to a sky-high price of about ten million, which was equivalent to an entire year of taxes from the entire Jia Ma Empire.

Although it was merely one grade of difference, the price between the two was more than a hundred times.

From this it could be seen that Xuan Level and Di Level were two completely different concepts.

4. Tian (Heaven):

This is the fourth rank skill class.

It is the highest and most powerful skill class and as with each skill class there is a further subclass as low/mid/high.
